She says that her yoga routine is effective, because it is designed to achieve results that favour a balanced working day. <\/p>\n For example, “postures are performed to reverse the number of hours sitting in the chair. So, the class has wellness principles that accompany the day-to-day at work,” Paula adds. At the same time, she explains that yoga improves health by stretching muscles and oxygenating the body.<\/p>\n “In a modern world, where we are always looking outwards, looking inwards, how I feel, how my body is, the wonder that we are, is also a connection to the things that are important to you,” she says.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alma.loadingediciones.cl\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/20230823_133944-scaled.jpg” title_text=”20230823_133944″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_orientation=”justified” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]Invitation just a step away<\/strong>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alma.loadingediciones.cl\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/9df018a9-a4a3-4dae-acce-2dcdd371c1d8-1-e1712088314346.jpg” title_text=”9df018a9-a4a3-4dae-acce-2dcdd371c1d8 (1)” _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_orientation=”justified” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]There are no special requirements to join this discipline and you have to consider that “it’s right here in the building, five minutes away from your work station, you train, come back and continue your working day”, says Alfredo, inviting more employees to join: “Come and explore, take that little step, you always learn new things that you can integrate into your life”.<\/p>\n “Over time, you see how your practice improves and that makes you feel proud and capable of achieving miracles,” concludes Liza enthusiastically, encouraging others to come along with their yoga mat.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#153772″ text_font_size=”20px” text_orientation=”center” text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]If you want to join the yoga classes, write to Maritza Vicencio at mvicenci@eso.org Many people may not know it, but at SCO we have a kind of “sanctuary”.
